Hello everyone, OAG here,
I'm testing some very… tricky waters here, I honestly don't know how well this short fic is going to go down and to be honest, I'm in two minds as to if I should put this up at all. Everyone knows what this weekend is, there is no forgetting it no matter how badly people may want to. In the weeks that followed the day itself I remember seeing tribute episodes of many of the web comics I read coming out and I remember having mixed feeling about that. How could something so serious be depicted in a comic? 10 years later, I understand how the artists were feeling.
I have tried before on the anniversary of 9/11 to write a post in my blog about what had happened but then I thought, why should anyone care about what I felt? I'm just some silly girl from the UK who had absolutely no connection to what happened. Other than my cousin being in the air at the time of the attacks on a flight from the west coast to Toronto, everything might as well have been on another planet. Or in a movie. I was on a 6'th form field trip on the day itself, half way up a mountain no less, so we only found out just how much had been going on the day after.
I watched a documentary on it last night and it stuck in my head causing me to have the oddest dreams with that as a recurring theme. When I woke up I had the idea for this fic. This is where I start to worry things have gotten too silly.
Lots of people have been placing the characters in Megamind and indeed Metro City itself in real-world USA and a few have used real-world events within their stories. So I wrote this fic, how would characters like Megamind and Minion react when seeing what true evil is capable of? Kinda makes shenanigans with giant robots look like a child sticking their tongue out at someone.
Please feel free to comment, even if it is to tell me how much this offends you. This is simply my flimsy attempt at paying respects to all those who lost so much in such a short space of time to the hands of some truly evil, despicable people. I mean no offence and hope that if I have caused any then you will contact me so we can discuss your views. I truly welcome all comments & will respond to all as soon as I can.
Thank you for reading.
